Re: Saucer Enquiry.
Dear Sirs,
Under this heading the "Daily Mail" of Saturday the 5th November informed its readers that you had started an enquiry into the subject of a flying saucer stated to have been seen and travelling at a speed of 800 m.p.h.
I have studied this question. The British Airforce declared that my hypotheses were interesting. These were embodied in a paper which some months ago I read before my colleagues of the Marine Academy at Paris. I attach a copy and hope that its perusal will be of interest to you.
Yours faithfully,
/sgd/ M. Lebrun.
